So far, so good.Started low for 2 months, then doubled it. Been on this for about 5 months (now May 8, 2013). The afternoon dose used to make me fall asleep and take an afternoon nap, but it doesn't anymore. My doctor says I don't have to take that dose if I don't "need" it. Haven't noticed side effects yet, but I started another medication, Topomax, the same day, which has made soda taste flat. So, hard to tell.

Anitanxiety med to help me get through stressful situations during the day. I have found it helpful. Never know when an anxiety attack will hit or sometimes why.
It seems to be helping some although my little boy is still severely anxious.

I have been on this for about 6 months now and this combined with Zoloft has been the most helpful for my depression & anxiety. I haven't noticed any major side effects. I do still have flare-ups, but my PDoc says that is something I may deal with for life.

    If I ever committed to an antidepressant for anxiety it would be Buspar, that med is better than any garbage SSRI. [More]
